Kerala remains largely unaffected by the killer wave that has lashed the entire Asia-Pacific region.
No tourist or any tourist destination has been affected. No loss of life to domestic or international tourists has been reported. The government has taken all precautionary measures for the safety of all tourists in the coastal areas of Kerala. Additional lifeguards have been deployed across all beach destinations of Kerala as a contingency measure.
Experts from the Meteorological Department are confident in their assessment that there is little chance of any aftershock in the coastal areas of
Kerala.
To reassure prospective visitors to Kerala, the Director of Tourism has uplinked an appeal on
